[2005] Binding two tables into DataGridView

If I have two tables that I want to bind into one DataGridView , how do I achieve that ?

Let's say I have two tables , one table has car colors (COLOR_ID,COLOR_TITLE) and the second table has (CAR_ID,CAR_TITLE,COLOR_ID) , The red color represents the primary key and the foreign key in the tables.

I know how bind one table to a DataGridView but when this table has foreign key , I don't know how to get their values and display the value in the DataGridView

HELP ? :)

Where are you storing your data? What kind of database? ex SQL, Access

Access Database

I know how to bind one table though , but not two tables into one DataGridView

I know it's possible by changing the field to dropdown list and modifying the databinding options , but I don't want a drop down list . .

I don't know much about Access, I use a SQL database and I just create a view when I want to do that.

Ok , that's exactlly what I was looking for thanks

Create an Adapter, Find your "View" Select whatever data you want from it. Then generate a dataset, either a new one or use an existing. This will add your view to the dataset then when creating a custom DataGridView call your "View" in the dataset your created.

I'm not that experienced so this could be wrong. I still use the old grid and do a table style, which is probably obsolete.

Code:

Private Sub Create_Resume_Datagrid()
        DataGrid2.TableStyles.Clear()
        Dim grdTableStyle2 As New DataGridTableStyle()

        With grdTableStyle2
            .MappingName = Me.DsAppResInt1.Tables("vw_AppResumes").TableName
            .BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.White
            .ReadOnly = True
            .AllowSorting = True
            .RowHeadersVisible = True
        End With

        Dim intDefaultColLen As Integer = (DataGrid1.Width) / 7

        Dim grdColStyle0 As New DataGridTextBoxColumn()
        With grdColStyle0
            .MappingName = "Resume_Unique"
            .HeaderText = "unique"
            .Width = 0
        End With
